I believe as long as the ebooks are epub, you should be able to side load them to your nook or side load them to an sd card. I have done that with my Sony, Kobo & Smashwords ebooks. I used to have a Sony ereader, and when I switched to nook, I downloaded the Sony ebooks to my computer, hooked up my nook to the computer, and dragged the ebook files to an SD card that I had loaded on my nook. Same with my Kobo & Smashword ebooks. Another option would be to see if there is a BooksAMillion app in the google play store. You could load the app on your nook, sign in to your BooksAMillion account on the app, and your library will show up within the app. I also just went to the BooksAMillion website and it appears that they used to sell Nook devices on their site, so I'm sure that would indicate it is compatible. Hope these suggestions are helpful and you can always visit a Barnes & Noble store Nook counter and the sales staff can assist you with any questions.

I cannot answer this as I have never tried. I have to say I do not use my nook that much now that I have a Kindle tablet. sorry I cannot help you.

Eh, yes and no. It's not like the Kindle where you purchase the book right there and its on the device - to get a book from Amazon, you would have to download it to your PC, use a program such as Calibre to convert it to another format (not sure if Calibre will strip DRM or not), and transfer it to the device. Kobo has their own bookstore built into the device and into the Kobo desktop software. It works pretty well and has pretty much every book I have ever searched for. However, I should warn you that I have had issues with DRM on the device - not just with the Kobo store, but with Adobe DRM which is supposed to work with the device This device is really ideal, in my opinion, for someone who is a bit more technically minded. It is easily mountable on a PC as a USB storage device, Calibre works flawlessly with it, it has SD card expansion slot, and it supports all the major eBook formats. If you like a device with a bit of flexibility (but requiring a bit of tech knowledge), this device is a great money saver. If you want something that is going to work flawlessly with the Amazon Kindle store and not give you any fits, I recommend actually getting a Kindle. Its like asking what the difference between an Android and an iPhone is. One is easy to use, but is limited (Kindle). The other is much more powerful and cheaper, but requires a bit more tinkering (Kobo). The question really comes down to what you want in an ebook reader, and - probably far more importantly - do you plan to get your books from Amazon, or from other sources?

I have no idea. I've been very happy with the Nook, but there are some books that have been formatted only for the Kindle, and are copy-protecyed that I can't run them through Calibre, so I'm considering getting a table that I -lnow- can read btth formats.

The kindle app is available for Android that is able to load your library from amazon and allows you to purchase more books. I use it all the time to read magazines and books I have purchased from amazon.

If I get any kindle books I convert them to epub using calibre on my computer and then I load them on to my Samsung galaxy tab sch-i800 and read them with Aldiko or nook. Aldiko is nice because it lets you customize the font and print size and nook is good because it lets you enlarge pictures or maps.

It's just a matter of the format in which the Ebooks were downloaded. Ebooks from Nolo are in PDF format, I believe. They are in a zip file. After you unzip the file, you can use the PDF file on the Sony reader or you can convert it to something else, which I would recommend. There are several free conversion utilities available on the web.

tl;dr: It works with some ebook formats but not others. If your ebook has DRM which prevents you from converting formats then you may be stuck with unreadable books; otherwise, conversion software like Calibre should do the trick. I was curious enough about this to try it so I downloaded a couple free ebooks. A Bulgarian PDF (text based) and a Russian EPUB. The PDF displayed non-roman alphabet characters just fine. The EPUB showed nothing but pages of question marks (?????? ?? ????). Next I used Calibre on my computer to convert the Russian EPUB -&gt; PDF and the characters displayed correctly on the Reader. I tried to convert the Bulgarian PDF -&gt; EPUB and Calibre was unable to do so; I'm not sure why.

I've got a number of books in epub and pdf format currently loaded on my Galaxy Tab. Admittedly, I'm using the Adobe PDF app and the Moon+ Reader app, so if you count Kindle, I'm juggling three different apps for ebooks at the moment.

I don't believe the slick readers are kindle compatible. You will have to convert your books to a compatible format online.

Unfortunately, only on .PDF format, the device will not display .EPUB ebooks on Arabic correctly since is not supported.

Yes indeed! I have apps from Google Play and Amazon Apps. I downloaded the Kindle App on all three of my tablets and my PC and all work beautifully. I've bough many Kindle books.

yes,It supports the generic e-book market.I don't have a kindle - ergo, I don't know the particulars of the Kindle market.I have a generic ebook app loaded on my ASUS.I don't use my ASUS primarily as an ebook reader.However, I would assume that it would work well for that purpose.

Thanks. So, you're saying that one cannot download the Barnes&Noble; ap onto the Archos 7 or 70, or the Kindle ap or the Kobo ap (if there is one)?

From my knowledge, I don't believe a pdf reader comes standard on the Q, but I do think there are 3rd party programs which make your e-books work

Download and run Calibre. This is a free program for both Windows and Linux. it has both a converter to/from mobi and most formats, as well as an uploader to your device. Calibre is a great program that really works both to organise your books and make them work with your device!r00t

My sincere apology, Rocky, but I have no idea. I only attempted connection with the Kindle. I know that the Kindle did not work with this. I have no experience with the other.

My library uses an app called Overdrive which is a free download from Android market. It is used for both ebooks and audio books. There should be a link through your library's web page including instructions. This is needed in addition to standard formats that the library lists.
